"Humans 'very likely' making earth warmer" is wrong
the discrepancy between predicted maximum heart rate and observed can be due
to caffeine, a cup of coffee before exercise can raise your heart rate 10-20 beats above your "ceiling" but it's the rate without any caffeine in your system what the formula predicts there are other stimulants (tea, coke, etc) that contain significant amounts of caffeine Jeff "donquijote1954" wrote in message oups.com... Hey, that I knew. What is missing in this report though is who among humans are to blame. See, NOT ALL HUMANS POLLUTE: some drive Stupid Unnecessary Vehicles while others ride bicycles. And how about those who --like me-- want to ride a bike, but find there's no safe place for it. It's a frightful jungle out there, you know. So we must sit back and swallow in disgust reports like this that blame all humans. But I say to these so called experts: Hey guys, it's not "humans," it's the lions of the jungle that ride SUVs to satisfy their Napoleonic complex, and it's those who can change things, but rather decide to spend a fortune in extravagant projects. Well, this is Napoleon himself... http://z.about.com/d/politicalhumor/...h_napoleon.jpg (Bush and Napoleon... http://www.counterpunch.org/madsen04102003.html) HOW THE LION BENEFITS FROM THE LITTLE ANIMALS' POVERTY One day all the little animals went up to the King of the Jungle and complained about their poverty, and in particular about the fact that every time, during the dry season, they had to travel long distances to drink the precious fluid, and demanded a WATER WELL be built for them... They cited how the resources that they contributed to the kingdom were wasted in WARS and EXTRAVAGANT PROJECTS to the tastes of the King... He, however, replied with all kinds of excuses: the lack of resources, that it wasn't a matter of him not wanting it, but that it was a matter of "priorities" --which was one of his favorite words... Meanwhile, an Owl --who had very good eyes-- had been observing life in the jungle, and thought this way: "Every time there's a dry season the little animals must come to the little dirty waterhole where the Lion waits for them... Had they been well fed and strong, he would have had to run after them and even risk resistance. And, more importantly, the little animals are forced to fight the Lion's wars as the quick way out of poverty..." And that's how the Owl landed an important --and well paid-- post in the brand new Astronomy Department created by the King of the Jungle -- to the effect of exploring life in other planets... *** PARIS - Officials from 113 countries agreed Thursday that a much- awaited international report will say that global warming was "very likely" caused by human activity, delegates to a climate change conference said. Dozens of scientists and bureaucrats are editing the new report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in closed- door meetings in Paris. Their report, which must be unanimously approved, is to be released Friday. Two participants, speaking on condition of anonymity because the meetings are confidential, said the group approved the term "very likely" in Thursday's sessions. That means they agree that there is a 90 percent chance that global warming is human-caused. The last report, in 2001, said global warming was "likely" caused by human activity. There had been speculation that the participants might try to change the wording this time to "virtually certain," which means a 99 percent chance. The report is considered an authoritative document that could influence government and industrial policy worldwide. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070201/...climate_change WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE http://webspawner.com/users/donquijote THE BANANA REVOLUTION http://webspawner.com/users/donquijote40 |

I think that we can all agree that pollution sucks. Hey, for what it's worth, I had an article written about me for my work with light pollution. What the hell are we gonna do about that? Everybody's sticking their nose into who drives what and some stupid ice melting that 99% of the world has never seen, what about the way you can't even see the stars at night from many places in the world. For generations, people have used the night sky for folklore, explaining their existence, navigation, etc., and in two generations we've all but erased the night sky. In the future, the only place people will be able to see stars is from space or a planetarium. Will some of you tree huggers get on that one for us? I mean, the sky is as much a part of nature as a forest... I can see the hungry lion making a greater profit out of it all, until the end, when he himself will be finished... As a star gaze becomes hard to get, they sell a piece of the sky in your vacation package to Tahiti, where still the sky is clean. As clean water become more scarce, they sell you water from Fiji. The problem is when they run out of remote places and the lions start fighting each other over scarce resources. That's when the predators eat each other... "The changing face of the African plains has led to a new and bloody conflict among its animals, as captured in this documentary. National Geographic: Predators At War examines conditions in the Mala Mala game preserve in South Africa. Due to a long standing drought, Mala Mala's plant life is slowly dying out, leaving the predatory animals of the region -- among them... More lions, leopards, hyenas and cheetahs -- to prey upon one another in a grim bid for survival." http://shopping.msn.com/Specs/shp/?itemId=50303194 |

As far back as the Ethiopian Food Crisis when I was in Elementary school. PBS and the BBC aired a National Geographic doc on it. Extremely important to our future. More so than just global warming alone. They actually work off each other. I always thought it was the Lions against the Christians anyway. Moneyed vs the poor. |

You could argue that you make black look white, that hot is cold, No, I can't but global warming story tellers insist that global warming can bring on a long hard winter, and more snow. that you can make evil look good, The only evil involved is people repeating what they hear like they do with outhouse rumors and old wives tales. and that Bush has been good for the environment. You probably think 911 was good for the environment. A lot of people are thinking and saying the US has done nothing, but they should check out all the projects that have been started in the last 10 or 15 years, the government does not need to force everybody here to do things, efficiency is good for profit, and cooperation is better than penalties or fines. The amount of ethanol and biodiesel from soy beans alone may amount to more neutral CO2 fuel than the efforts at conservation or any effort by any other country. And we have to try to do all this while about 2 million people every year abandon their homeland to come here to try to find a better life and be free of centralized government restrictions and interference in their lives.

"Humans 'very likely' making earth warmer" is wrong
Jesus couldn`t be here right now, but braught to you by the marvels
of modern technology we qoute; "By their deeds you shall know them." Put into a more apt context, philosiphers correctly predict (in the near future) that mans` acts will be greatly amplified as to expose them for their traights; as happening here now on the internet! ------------------------------------------------------- Ashley Clarke ------------------------------------------------------- |

Is that a quote from something said by an expert, or your own addition to all the things that global warming has done? I searched several different ways for something to support your contention, but only found one article by a writer (not a climate expert), and an opinion by that writer that global warming has caused the snow cap on the mountain to be smaller. It is odd that I couldn't find any mention of the things you claim when reading the tourist advertising. Joe Fischer |
